Bridges: ‘I Was A Hollywood Drug Dealer’

Todd Bridges


Former child star Todd Bridges was so desperate to make cash when hit TV show Diff’rent Strokes ended, he became a sleazy Hollywood drug dealer.

The actor was 22, out of work and in debt to tune of $300,000 and so he opted for desperate measures to pay off what he owed and get rich quick.

Promoting his new book, Killing Willis, Bridges tells news show Access Hollywood, “I worked four different hotels and I had five girls that worked on the streets.”

But he couldn’t stop using what he sold – and quickly became a drug addict.

He admits that was the lowest point of his life: “I hated myself. I hated the way I looked in the mirror. I believed everything people said about me.”

    The darker side of the man has been revealed by himself and its really unnerving attitude. This can only be happening in actors like him and with his publicity he definitely misused his popularity. Does he never get caught for that or will he be tried now for his self-confession?
